In the recent past, Haryana’s former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda hosted a lunch at his residence in which veterans like Sheila Dikshit and Ghulam Nabi Azad were amonst the invitees.
When Azad and Madam Dikshit came face-to-face, the former got startled for a moment but then congratulated the latter on her appointment as the new Delhi Congress chief. He went to express his concern that Sheila Dikshit was not given even a year’s time to strengthen her hold over the state. On this, Sheila Dikshit limited her reply to a mere smile.
